I tried to do this but came up with: Rodney the Horsefaced Horse, a blatant simultaneous ripoff of ElfQuest and Diary of a Teenage Girl.

DangerBunny. This was actually a comic strip I invented in 4th grade. It was sorta detective noir, but it starred a bunny rabbit who wore shades and his sidekick; a pencil. Their villains were frequently crocodiles, parrots and foxes, and on one memorable occasion, another Bunny. This other bunny tho smoked cigarettes. That's how you knew he was evil.

The plot offer took place around the city docks. There were lots of shoot-outs and great action shots of Bunnies flying through the air and firing pistols - one in each hand.

a comic that is just accurate drawings of the same city street corner at exactly the same time every day. the comic would be called "9:15" and would have "characters" only in the loosest sense of the word.

a comic about a dead giraffe that comes back to life every February 29th to collect stamps. each issue is narrated by a leaf on a tree and each ends abruptly when the giraffe eats the leaf. each story is an analogy of the life of a different British

I'd buy the dead giraffe one. Poor leaf.

I have an idea for a crimefighter with amazing powers and a secret identity. Has that been done?

You know what there aren't enough of in comics? Straight sitcoms.

― Deric W. Haircare, Monday, 11 August 2008 00:26 (eighteen years ago)

(By which I mean non-superhero sitcoms. I don't want anyone to think I'm dissing the short-lived Will & Grace comic.)
